Missouri wide receiver Dorial Green-Beckham found himself in trouble earlier this month when he and two others were arrested in Springfield, Mo., for suspicion of felony drug distribution after marijuana and other drug paraphernalia were found in a vehicle the three men were riding in. But Thursday brought potential good news, at least as far as Green-Beckham is concerned.

According to a report by the Springfield News-Leader, recently released documents (specifically, a probable cause statement submitted to Greene County Circuit Court with a search warrant request) show that Green-Beckham did not admit to owning any of the estimated pound of marijuana found in the vehicle, and that one of the other men in the car, Patrick Prouty, said that the marijuana belonged to him and that it was for personal use. Also, the other man arrested, John McDaniel, who was driving the vehicle, admitted to hiding one gram of marijuana in the glove box. Neither Prouty nor McDaniel said that Green-Beckham owned any of the marijuana, according to the documents.

Based on these documents, former Greene County prosecutor Darrell Moore said that he did not expect any charges to be filed against Green-Beckham.

"The caveat is, there may be more information than is in the search warrant return,” Moore told the News Leader. “But based on those details, it doesn’t look like any criminal charges will be brought against Green-Beckham."

The case remains under investigation, and criminal charges have not been filed after Green-Beckham and the two other men were arrested on Jan. 10.

Green-Beckham was previously charged in October 2012 with marijuana possession in Columbia, Mo., and later pleaded guilty to second-degree trespassing. He and two teammates were reportedly smoking pot in a campus parking lot near Memorial Stadium.

In a written statement, Green-Beckham attorneys Tyson Martin and Ryan Cole said their client has "been nothing but completely cooperative with law enforcement throughout this entire process."

"Dorial very much regrets putting himself in this situation, and he is anxious to put this ordeal behind him," the statement said.

While Green-Beckham, who led Missouri with 59 receptions last season, isn't out of the woods yet, it does appear increasingly probable that he won't suffer any further legal repercussions as a result of his arrest. Missouri coach Gary Pinkel has previously said that discipline for Green-Beckham will be handled internally.
